Facilities:

Our beautiful 2400 sq ft boutique has been in the same location for 27 years. The historic triangular Times Square Building sits between two busy streets - Olive Way and Stewart with lots of traffic to view our two large display windows. The space is elegantly decorated and laid out for ease of shopping. The rent is below market at $4,152/mo plus $1,450/mo triple net. The lease expires in September 2019 and our landlord is happy to discuss a new lease with a new owner. The building itself is a Seattle Icon located between Nordstrom and Macy's (Home Based)

Competition:

There is one consignment store in the Belltown district but we don't consider any consignment store direct competition. After all, we're selling one-of-a-kind items that simply aren't available anywhere else. So, we're delighted to be in close proximity as well with Nordstrom Rack and Saks off Fifth because their advertising brings discount-loving customers and visitors to our area where we can offer them unique items with labels like YSL, Marni, Lanvin and more - at even better discounts than Nordstrom Rack! We haven't had to advertise in years.

Growth & Expansion:

Gone are the days when everyone wanted to look alike. We appeal to women who love the hunt for one-of-a-kind treasures that are unique to their style. Apparel resale, offline and online is an $18 Billion industry and projected to be $33 Billion industry by 2021. And there are lots of opportunity for increasing sales and profits which I'll share. Social media expansion is a big opportunity. Our website needs to be optimized and developed to reach a much larger audience. Plus we're beginning setup on an Ebay store. I have lots of ideas.

Support & Training:

Our store manager and Social Media manager are both wonderful and want to stay on. I will happily provide training for 2 weeks at no cost. We've also developed lots of systems and materials to assist you in running Alexandra's and 27 years of experience that will save you lots of time and money.
